Steps:
- Make sauce
- Pick enough tarragon leaves to measure 1/2 cup (do not pack). Chop enough chives to measure 1/3 cup. Coarsely chop shallot. In a food processor puree tarragon, chives, and shallot with remaining sauce ingredients until smooth and season with salt and pepper. Sauce may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring sauce to cool room temperature before serving.
- Make Fish
- In a deep 10-inch skillet bring wine and water to a simmer, covered. Cut salmon into 6 pieces and season with salt and pepper. Submerge 3 salmon pieces, skin sides down, in simmering liquid (add hot water if necessary to just cover salmon) and poach at a bare simmer, covered, 8 minutes, or until just cooked through. Transfer cooked salmon with a slotted spatula to a platter to cool and poach remaining salmon in same manner. When salmon is cool enough to handle, peel off skin and if desired with a sharp knife scrape off any dark meat. Salmon may be cooked 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring salmon to cool room temperature before serving.

Steps:
- Place water and some salt into a saucepan fitted with a steamer basket and bring to a boil.
- Add potatoes to basket and steam over medium-low heat until tender when pierced with the tip of a paring knife.
- Meanwhile, in a heavy-bottomed Dutch oven, heat oil to 350 degrees on a deep-fry thermometer.
- Transfer potatoes to a bowl to cool. Once potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel and halve lengthwise; cut into 3/4-inch pieces. Return pieces to bowl and shake them for 5 to 10 seconds to roughen the edges.
- Add potatoes to Dutch oven, in batches if necessary, and fry until golden brown and crisp, about 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer potatoes to a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Season generously with salt and serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Fingerling potatoes are the best choice for this recipe because they are small and have a thin skin that crisps up nicely when fried. If you can't find fingerling potatoes, you can also use small Yukon Gold or red potatoes.
- Wash the potatoes thoroughly: This will help to remove any dirt or debris from the potatoes. You can also peel the potatoes if you prefer, but this is not necessary.
- Cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces: This will help them to cook evenly. If the potatoes are different sizes, some pieces may be overcooked while others are still undercooked.
- Soak the potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes: This will help to remove some of the starch from the potatoes, which will help them to crisp up when fried. You can also soak the potatoes overnight if you have time.
- Dry the potatoes thoroughly before frying: This will help to prevent the oil from splattering. You can use a paper towel to pat the potatoes dry.
- Fry the potatoes in hot oil: The oil should be at least 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If the oil is not hot enough, the potatoes will not crisp up. You can use a deep fryer or a large skillet to fry the potatoes.
- Cook the potatoes until they are golden brown and crispy: This will usually take about 5-7 minutes. Be sure to stir the potatoes occasionally so that they cook evenly.
- Drain the potatoes on paper towels: This will help to remove any excess oil from the potatoes.
- Serve the potatoes immediately: They are best when served hot and crispy. You can sprinkle them with salt, pepper, or your favorite herbs and spices.
Conclusion:
Fried fingerling potatoes with tarragon sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The crispy potatoes are complemented perfectly by the creamy and flavorful tarragon sauce. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
